Ah I see.

I usually get signs of dust in the machine after a few months.  But yeah, even unchecked for years, there's typically not that much dust for there to be an issue.
I rarely open the box too, but if I'm getting a new case, I suppose it's nice if when I do, it's mostly dust free inside.

Yeah, too many blue LEDs these days >_>

:/
I suppose if the case gives separate + and - heads, I could connect the power LED into the HDD LED ports on the motherboard...
